Madang cruise port guide
The eastern half of the island of New Guinea - second largest in the world - was divided between Germany (north) and the UK (south) in 1885. The latter area was transferred to Australia in 1902, which occupied the northern portion during World War I and continued to administer the combined areas until independence in 1975. A nine-year secessionist revolt on the island of Bougainville ended in 1997 after claiming some 20,000 lives.

The town features remnants of its German colonial history (it was formerly called Friedrich-Wilhelmshafen), WWII underwater wreck diving, and access to traditional Papua New Guinean culture.
